@@diatonicshooter8316 When in 2020?

@@AudunOmmedal how long have u been in Egypt...
Try to take uber or careem.. Even egyptains prefers it than white or regular taxi.
هما يقولون أيش ممكن
@Lone Wolf how is using Uber or Careem doesn't support the local economy while the drivers are independent local Egyptians?
I was in Egypt for 2 weeks and the people are very loving, Uber was cheap and but Egyptian food is very bad sadly.
@Lone Wolf ده على اساس التاكسي عربيات صناعة امريكية يا عم ما يروح جزء لامريكا في الاخر برضه في نسبة كبيرة بتروح لاصحاب الاوبر
@@Billzloveschelsea what did you eat
l,m Egyptian and I agree that some Egyptian food is bad but there are very taste food as koshari or fatta 😂❤️
وااااو اهلا و سهلا بك في المصر.
احب مصر جدا جدا !! ❤👏👏

We love you too :)

ومصر بتحبك
Hi, Mike. Just returned from Egypt. It was first time for me, being in Egypt. But, we decided not to visit pyramids and Cairo. Now I see, that we missed something gorgeous. (( Best wishes from Ukraine, thanks for your content, it is very useful for me. I also learn Arabic for more than 1 year and it was good practice exp in Egypt. My teacher from Cairo)))
LOL you did not visit the pyramids!!!
@Pavel Sashko Morocco is much more beautiful and more civilised than dirty Egypt. Greetings from your countryman.
Andrij S you really do show how civilised you are by insulting other countries and calling them dirty.....
@@g-shockforlife1703 you don't consider India dirty ? Or is it clean for you ?
Andrij S sorry but what brought India into this?
First off I lived in Egypt for 25 years
the driver was really teasing him I never was in a taxi that went that speed and I was in many taxis
of course you would give the poor maid some money
she sees you as a wealthy tourists
women who work as maids in Egypt are really poor.
Agreed.
I enjoyed the whole video up until that point where he spoke about the maid and the 20 pound note. And then to resort to name calling ("Ballsy"), was way over the top, completely uncalled for. If she were not performing any kind of a service to/for him then I can understand to a point, but to deny her any part of it is simply chintzy and shows a lack of compassion for those less fortunate. Shame!
Finkworld are you crazy! That is almost 500 EGP !!!!
@@zazapipe I tip, perhaps you don't. The better the service, the better the tip. Not because I'm rich, but because I'm not as poor. Wrap your head around that my friend.
@@zazapipe Buddy you seem to forget that 500EGP can barely get you food for 3 or 4 days with the current economy. a $20 tip (I live in the US) is generous but a very acceptable amount to give to servers, maids or bus drivers.
I’m SO happy you’re in Cairo. I was literally smiling throughout the whole video! Hope you enjoy your stay here, even though it’s very chaotic and hectic lmfao. Love From Egypt🇪🇬❤️!
That driver vas crazy. trust me😂😂😂😂😂 we don't have other drivers like this!😂 also enjoy your stay in our country. Glad you're here!
😅😅
عاصم شكر - Aasem shokr
Sorry to say this, but all of them drive like this. It's the culture.
They drive fast like as if they are in a hurry.
بصراحا يسوقو بسرعه و ان خايف. المشكله ان كلهم كدا
@@spidyman8853 Thank you very much for your opinion, I think may be you are right. But I think that some of them drive safely. I am not saying all of them but That may be because of their culture. Thank you very much again!
السواقين كلهم كدة اللهم بارك 😂
بس احنا تقريباً اتعودنا ع الموضوع يعني😂💙
Kenyan🇰🇪🇰🇪 living in Egypt and I can assure you this country is beautiful and most people are kind
When i was in kuwait, my egyptian driver always drive over 180km/h even though we are on the highway in the night. I was so scared but he always say "no problem" 😭this video brings me back to the memories of that time.
😁
😒
Welcome to Egypt 🇪🇬 💜 💜
Welcome to Cairo, Egypt.
I'm an American who lives in Cairo for almost 6 years. Love it and hate it but mostly I love it.
Enjoy the food and culture and don't let anyone hustle you.
judging by your name, you're probably an Egyptian born in the U.S, am i correct?
@@amrayad2704 - wrong. White boy. Irish and other mixed. American born. Hazem is my Islamic name after I converted to Islam.
@@danoneall4013 wow! never been that happy to be wrong before, that's amazing brother!
@@amrayad2704 - Jazak Allah Khair 7bibi.
I visited Egypt last year, definitely recommend taking a trip to Sharm-el- Sheik, by plane if you can, and up North to Alexandra. Such beautiful places!!
Egypt is crazy, but lovable in the end ❤
wonderful land ❤
Hi, just in Egypt we drive a little bit crazy way, but it's a beautiful country and many of things you can do and places to go and enjoy it, I'm Egyptian by the way and you are welcome anytime
tnx
Yeah...crazy getting your money lol
@@zazapipe it's a less fortunate country so of course they have to hustle. Its uncomfortable but its the reality that people are earning nothing.
No camels 😂🐫
Now I lived in Egypt for more than 20 years and never seen a camel except in pyramids only....
Not in normal streets, I'm so shoked people still think we use camels even though even my mom or my family old member never do ....
It's kind of a tourism thing not an actual Distinctive property for a whole country ...not even for those countries who used to use Camel's in past
It's 2019, world! 😂😂
Just for the record
Welcome to Egypt ❤️
Princess Bee 😅
And i think they'd be more surprised if they knew that even the ancient Egyptians themselves didn't actually have camels .. They only used horses
The arabians are the ones who used to have & ride camels , not the Egyptians
wait a second , i will park my 🐪 cAmel
First of all welcome to Egypt! We pronounce it ( Nawwart Masr) It means you have brought Light with you coming over somewhere! 🌸✨
Secondly, I feel sorry for the driving experience you’ve had! It’s pretty scary yeah. As for the lady at Hotel😅 She probably didn’t realize it was Money 😂 So she acted so comfortably 😅 Not all the experience would be such crazy ones!
Cairo or as we Say ( Al-Qahira) is well-known as the city that doesn’t sleep!
One more thing, Maybe there’s something weird about people whom you met, but there will always be that good part that is not hard to be found you know.. The Good in Egyptian people is the best thing about Egypt 🌸✨
Hope you enjoy your stay 🙌🏻and to be safe and not scared LOL😅
Nourhanne 10 cairo is like New York but Egypt more busy I’m from Egypt 🇪🇬
I concur with you. As soon as I am out of Cairo airport, the Egyptian people are kind and friendly.
المصريين طيبيين
I love Egypt and I hope one day live in this magical country, my experience with Uber always good!
velma Collins we hope to see u in Egypt one day inshallah
Spidy Man do u mean in Cairo airport they are not friendly
Welcome to Egypt bro , I hope you do a video speaking Arabic with Egyptians , that will be so funny I guess
here ruclips.net/video/CVrJG1rWnws/видео.html
I'm Egyptian and i've been to England i lived in Yorkshire and now i'm at New Zealand in Auckland and i know i love how crazy cairo is and i still love it the most thank u so much for going there and reminding me of all my amazing memories there💕 hope u enjoyed ur time and yeah we have really weird people there but they're so pure and kind
And I might add that Egyptians are the kindest, sweetest, most helpful and generous people I have ever known.
Yet, you need to choose the religious types, those are the ones I mean.
I'm a resident in Alexandria/Egypt. The most thing i like here is the Egyptian people.They are so friendly and they always make you feel you belong to them . There is no racism at all. Wherever you came from, all people are treated the same. I agree with you when you talked about the cleaning lady. You will see a considerable number like here. So from now on do not be so nice and do what you feel is comfortable to you . I hope Egyptians do not get upset and offended. I'm not generalizing and i really love you all and your country.
Thank you so much Mike
Why didn't you go to Dahab , Siwa , Aswan, El Gouna, Hurghada and sharm El sheikh and another places this places are really good you should go and visit it.
_by the way I'm Egyptian that's why I'm saying though.
You're good👍🏻
Big love from yemen🇾🇪♥
Watching your video brought back so much memories of when I visited in September last year! Same feelings on the driving 😂😂 but I miss Egypt and the love of my life is from Alexandria Egypt
Alexandria is the most beautiful
This was exactly my first impression when i got to cairo. I am a Nigerian, and i've been living in egypt since 2013 but i am still not used to the driving especially in the cairo city😂😂 it's scary. I can remember the day i was late for a flight and i asked the driver to drive fast, boyyy we literally took off😂. Also no one wears seatbelts here. i also stopped, but i do wear them when i am sitting in the front and the driver is speeding.
Welcome bro 💚
Tell us if you want suggestions for places to visit
I saw your pic in front of the pyramids on Facebook 😂💗
Welcome to my country Mike 💟💟
thank you!
Thank you mike for your words about Cairo people we do appreciate that very much, you are so welcomed to back any time
I live in Kuwait too and I’m Egyptian 😂. I will never get used to the driving ever, I always feel like I’m going to die during the ride, so I don’t blame you.
Hello Mike. I'm from Egypt. It's my pleasure to hear that you have visited my country. You know I was infatuated by hearing you describe your first impressions of your visit. I really wish to meet you in real, face to face to tell you more about my country and kind people. I hope you tell us about your coming visit to recommend you visit fascinating places are the best.
Much love for you and I hope that you will visit Alexandria 😄
Alex is waaayyy better than Cairo
Yes it's better because it's way less crowded and much smaller 😄
@@mohamed8464 I stayed there for like 3 weeks, somewhere near Sporting and it was amazing, I love it so much!
I hope that you really enjoyed your trip😄 and by the way I am living in sporting too🤗
where are you from and is this your first visit to Egypt however i hope if you visited Egypt again to go to Luxor and Aswan and hurghada you will like them so much
@@mohamed8464 we were staying at Kilopatra zananeary/hamamat. It wasn't my first time there, it was my second. I did visit Luxor and Aswan and they are beautiful! Thank you so much Mohamed, I love going back to Egypt and visiting my family and seeing the country
Mike, I am an Egyptian who lives in Cairo and yeah it’s a CRAZY city that sometimes we can’t keep up with it’s craziness, and yes we admit it 😂🤦♀️hope you enjoyed your stay and wasn’t disappointed 🙏

Hi Mike!! I’ve never been to Egypt and would like to visit one day. But I was hesitant to travel there because of the crazy drivers that you have mentioned in this video.I am sure it is a beautiful country and there are lots of historical places to see and delicious food to try. I really like your channel. Keep up the good work!!Thank you for the video and have a beautiful day!!!🤗✌️
gamze ugur anytime u are welcome to my country don’t worry u are safe I walk across those roads to work I go by bus and train it busy but I have walked in those streets everyday for my whole life it’s fine especially u not going to live u will be happy u won’t live here it’s to chaotic 😂
I am an egyptian and i am happy that you had good time in egypt and i hope you would come visit egypt again
Welcome to Cairo it takes a bit to get used to but since I am an Egyptian when I travel abroad I can't wait to return to my beloved topsy turvy Cairo you need a good tourist guide you can even see more breath taking wonders again welcome to Cairo enjoy your stay 😍😍
Just use uber its alot cheaper and safer than taxi
You can always ask drivers to drive slower if you are uncomfortable safety comes first
Try to find a local person that can help you through stuff so that you can have a more enjoyable experience
Does Uber work from the airport?
@@oldrestless yep it works everywhere
I totally agree with driving in Egypt. Last time I went there my dad crashed 2 cars. he usually lives in Kuwait so the driving is more sensible. But in Egypt, he says that some drive between 2 lanes, never use the headlight signals ETC. Egypt must really improve their driving.
Wanna meet up? I'm in Cairo haha
Me
@judy hahaha =)
@@aA-cf8jh aye xD
Welcome all foreigners tourists in Egypt beloved. I hope you enjoyed your trip to Egypt. Egypt welcomes all the world coming from different countries❤️
Woah!!! I haven't been in Egypt for a while but I still recognize most of the places you went to! Especially around Giza! I used to go there all the time!
I am Egyptian and lived there for most of my life! I really want to thank you for giving my country the recognition it deserves! 😁
Im actually egyptian and the airports have changed, the streets you were on are some of the oldest in egypt but have u ever visted sheikh zayed in egypt, thats where most people live a normal life , super clean, no trouble, better schools and stuff
I’ve been watching your videos for so long and loved your channel so much! I’m from Egypt but I used to live in kuwait the majority of my life, so your videos were very nostalgic and touching to me. Im very jealous that you visited egypt because i was planning on inviting you over next summer on your first tour of egypt. Hope you had fun tho its a crazy magical place for sure
نورت مصر 😁
Everyone is used to this driving and there's always traffic
That driver at the beginning of the video was really funny any way welcome to egypt you're gonna find alot of crazy things here but we deal with it whatever is it ..
I'm Egyptian so if anyone wants to ask about anything about Egipt I am here for help ..Welcome to every one ♥♥
Marhaba Mike, your follower from Egypt here, I love your vids man and your passion for traveling and experiencing different cultures. But I have to tell you something when you talk about Cairo or Egypt in general: IT IS SO BIG AND SO DIVERSE just like you said. So you can't judge the whole city based on your experience since your experience could've been totally different if you went to another area of Cairo, and 1:46 correcrtion: there ARE quite a lot of posh parts in Cairo, trust me.
I swear I screamed once I saw the video thumbnail lol I'm from Cairo and it was so exciting knowing that my favourite RUclipsr is in the same city as I am. Great video Mike! and sorry about that crazy driver, he was funny though 😂😂
I love Egypt 🇪🇬 ♥️
I love 2❤️🌸
i am really sorry that you had to go through this. if you ever felt like venting i am here for you dear.
You made me fall in love with my country, again. I'm so proud to be Egyptian.❤️✌️
Walaa Emara ehh...I'd wait for a minute for a second thought lol
I really recommend visiting (gayer anderson museum) in cairo , its one of the most incredible museums and one of the most underrated .. just take an uber instead of taxi “always” they won’t drive as fast or scam you
I’m not Egyptian but I live in Egypt and I hope you like your stay here!
you're great💚👍🏻
From palestine💚💚

I'm from Palestine as well, awesome.
Lave palestina
@@Ahmedsamy-rl6bc love Palestinians from Egypt ❤️
@@abdulrahmanmuhammed5513 good. Thanks. Im Egyption
If you ever go back to Egypt, don’t spend too much time in the city. Just look at the pyramids and leave. You should go to Sharm El-Sheikh, the cleopatra sea in Marsa Matruh, and of course, Alexandria. Also, you wouldn’t want to miss out on the ancient buildings in Luxor and Aswan. The people there are the most friendly. You should also try to find someone to show you around to give you the best experience. I can help you with the last part.
Hi Mike! Not sure if you'll see this, but your videos are absolutely fascinating to me.
I'm dating this guy who says he's met you. I'm not sure if you spoke briefly or if you were really friends but wowww your videos makes me want to visit him in Cairo NOW! Inshallah. PS his name is Hattan 😊
You have to go out of the central district for the posh areas. The central district was the posh area until the 60s but went down hill. I lived on Cherif (Pasha) Street, Immobilia Building built in 1939; art deco. We could see the pyramids in those days. That was the tallest and most modern building's till the 50s.
I like your videos. Im brazilian and study arabic here in Cairo. I wish have a pleasure to meet you if you still here. Massalama.
I am from Cairo and I just got so many memories of my home
نحن نحبك من السعودية
Cheers mate
I second the driving and I have lived here a good chunk of my life. I have only realized how chaotic our driving is when I started living somewhere else. Enjoy your stay though!!
Mike, you should definitely go to the vacation spots in Egypt, see the Red Sea & go snorkeling, you’ll be amazed !
Hi. New subscriber here. Yes, I believed that Egyptians are too friendly. When I was there way back 2018 was one of the unforgettable experienced. Til now I always want to come back. But that time still I haven’t done my RUclips channel just lately I realized that I should have done my YT channel long time ago.
The intro made me laugh alot😂😂😂
Don't mind the driver, Sir..He didn't understand that"too fast" means more than necessary or usual🤦🏻♀️
Edit: I'm Egyptian so I guessed this:)
Welcome to Egypt! Greeting from an Egyptian that lives abroad.
Wow. It would be awesome if we hangout dude. Anyways.. Welcome to Cairo..
DON'T LEAVE EGYPT WITHOUT VISITING ASWAN.
finally, you are in EGYPT.welcome MIke
i hope that u enjoyed your time here, I'm from egypt btw.
It is an honor mr. Mike
Welcome to Cairo 🌹💙
If you told us you're coming i would've come and be your free of charge tour guide i live 20 minutes away from the pyramids and i love you ❤️
I once drove from Riyadh, to Jeddah. In the mountains, there were crashed cars, and trucks, thousands of feet, below.
Bro you are fantastic do not stop plz🙄
الراجل المصري مكنش عارف يتكلم إنجليزي 😂
Thank you for posting the video. I'm moving to Egypt this year, I'd love to hear more about Egypt from you.
more videos from Egypt coming soon :) thanks for your comment
Traffic in Egypt can be very dangerous. 3 of my friends were in a car crash couple of months agk. Only one of them survived with broken ribs and the two others were dead on the scene. The problem is that they weren’t speeding, they actually were parked on a highway as their car broke down and a truck I guess or a van hit them. Pray for them to rest in peace inshallah.

I am so happy that you enjoyed the trap😍🙏 I am from Egypt by the way
I'm planning to visit Egypt later that year.
You should try visiting hurghada in Egypt ... It's amazing . There are so many corals and georgous hotels there .
I had that scary driving treatment on my first ride in Cairo. They love to scare/tease you.
welcome to Egypt Mike, hope you will enjoy the trip around
thanks Amr
@@MikeStillUK how long you will stay in Egypt
Welcome to Egypt ✨ I hope you enjoyed your stay in The Capital 💜
I wish to visit Egypt one day
The land of Pharaohs and their stunning pyramids
Greetings from assiut 😂
From Egypt with Love.
First thing welcome to Egypt🖐
Second thing we driving too fast🏎 it's normal here
Just put the Seatbelt on ✔and let the driver go.
And how long will you stay in Egypt?🤔
Great vlog mike! Keep up the good work 😃
I happen to be back in Cairo these days, funny was telling my family yesterday “imagine a TESLA Autopilot engaged in Cairo”. I made a Cairo Vlog too (still in the edit). Anyways if you still in Egypt let me know if you wanna collab-vlog. Enjoy your time Mike
Thanks for sharing, Mike. I am so pleased to see you back to your normal self after your traumatic experience with the awful Egyptian Taxi Driver!!!
Egyptian really pure when they see something new they say I love .
Wow, you're really here that's great, I've always envied people you meet on the street and talk with :D
Always wanted to be one of them, I hope I bump into you on any given day :D
Welcome to Egypt have a nice time and please don't let anyone bother you.
Try to visit Sinai, Siwa, the white desert aaand ermm Alexandria.
Hi Mike! You came to Egypt alone? Yani without any help of travel agency? You organized everything by yourself?
I love Egypt since I was a kid 💕💕💕
Absolutely crazy! That's the exact words! I was there in 2014 and I was really shocked with how most of them would drive, even though the tourists sites there are awesome, but I feared for my life there every time I go places by taxi, I'd definitely prefer going by camels if there's any.. lol.
Welcome to CRAZY Cairo.
And trust me that driver was less than NORMAL 😅😂
I hope you enjoyed your days in Egypt 😃
Wow It's been a while since I last went to Egypt but as an Egyptian I can totally confirm the roads are hectic. Anyway hope you had fun ❤️
Mike Thank You ..You bring Arab together in ur channel
I'm going to Egypt in January. Where did you stay in Cairo?
Welcome to Egypt💟😺
If you want see amazing places in Egypt , you should visit south Egypt
there is a beautiful cities like Qena , Luxor and Aswan 😺💞
Sorry for my mistakes in my words 😅
I'm still learn English❤
Greetings from Egypt 😻💕
If you come to Egypt, I think you should visit a lot of pleaces like the red sea or Aswan and louxor
welcome to Egypt 😄
Welcome to egypt! Greetings from a filipino living in egypt, i speak pretty good egyptian arabic, its pretty different from normal arabic. Hope you enjoy your stay :D
It feels weird seeing a vlog of my own country 😂😂😂
well, welcome to egypt bro! Enjoy your stay~
Yes Chinese are everywhere (but actually in the pyramids area Japanese and Korean are a lot as well) and I’m your Chinese fan now having 3-month stay in Cairo.
Hi Mike
I am a long time subscriber from Saudi. I was in Cairo last year and the driving bit was insane. I thought Saudi was the worst!
Anyways in short, do not miss the country side. Let me know if you would like me to help organise it. YOU WILL LOVE IT, it’s incredibly cheap and much nicer than the city.
Cheers!
this country has a lot to offer
Yea I’m from Egypt and I live in Cairo but I’m originally born in the countryside called monofeya it’s beautiful nice and quite I wish he comes to the countryside
Arabic Mike more than you could imagine
You have the country side, north coast, western desert and it’s oasis , the eastern coast on the Red Sea , south sainai, ancient temples in luxur and Aswan.
Each place needs a weak vacation at least to fully enjoy it
Arabs are just bad at driving in general.
Skinner no u can’t say that I’m a good driver not all Arabs are bad like there are some westerners that are worst then Arabs in driving
